【Story Introduction】
Architect Querry had a disease - a disease that burned out his passion for life.
He is physically healthy but mentally defective; he lives a tired life while helplessly searching for a way out.
He left behind the glitz and hustle and bustle of the city and exiled himself to the dense jungles of Africa.
Faced with desolation and poverty, he felt happiness and abundance for the first time in a long time.
He thought he was about to recover, but he didn't expect that everything was just a precursor to the coming storm.

This book does not tell a fictional story about a distant continent, but the real daily life around you and me.
We are all more or less like the protagonist, burning ourselves out hysterically and then falling uncontrollably into the void.
